Excerpt from Twelve Americans: Their Lives and Times A Disposition to belittle and disparage public men is very properly held to be a characteristic failing of the Republic. Yet we are told that it is not more prevalent in our American Union than it was in the commonwealths of ancient Greece, and that it is not more distinctly marked in the United States of to-day than it was during the lifetime of the fathers of the country. Whether it be more justifiable is a question less open to discussion than whether there is great danger of its being too freely indulged There is certainly no necessary connection between the service of the people and the imputation of base motives to those who, by election or appointment, assume public responsibilities. It is equally certain that there is nothing more misleading than to deal with a human being, in any of the relations of life, as a mere bundle of qualities attributed to him by common rumor, and associated with none of the shades of character, impulse, and motive which really combine to make him what he is.
